Mark E. Zimmerman (VP)

Mark is a transplanted Bostonian who has lived and worked in New York for over 40 years. Mark studied at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and utilized his background in classical painting to develop his unique style.. His paintings show a steady movement through the various schools of modern painting of the 20th & 21st Century.

Mark’s artistic mission is to create and cultivate his own unique visual language. This language results from the interaction between intellect, chance, spontaneity and vision. He has observed that his vision is informed by every experience he has had and by every emotion he has felt. So, even though he does not paint a specifically emotional painting, the emotions brewing just below the surface rise into the work affecting the thousands of decisions that need to be made, which graphically influence form, content and composition. By relying on his intuition over his intellect, he puts himself in that wondrous place where it feels like the painting has created itself and re-created him in the process. His work is, for him, a transformation accelerator.
